Easter

Seattle Polish News sends warm wishes for a wonderful Easter.


As in previous years, the 2026 GiveBIG fundraiser is happening this May. The Seattle Polish Foundation invites you to support its Cultural Fund. Your donation not only helps preserve our traditions but also keeps them accessible to all.


The Seattle Polish Film Festival is asking for donations to cover venue rental costs. Like last year, all screenings are free, making your support more important than ever.


At Seattle Polish News, we’re hoping our subscribers can help us cover the costs of running this service.
